Greetings from Santa Rosa Sean,With $80K to get you going, you might find something worthwhile in southwest Santa Rosa.

And the buyer is typically poorly qualified to buy (or else they would just get a loan.)So, from an agents prespective this isn't worthwhile.

Would much prefer a call when something worthwhile comes up and is worth pursuing.There are those that buy a lot and let agents know they will buy from anyone and that they can buy now if they have something good.You can be loyal if you choose and give her listings but you can work with listing agents on your purchases.If she is really working hard she will find you what you need but she also needs to work the kind of properties you specialize in.

And you can do it for just a month or two and see if its worthwhile.

I have learned that as long as it is producing at the minimum of 75.00 per unit, it is worth while, becasue of the equity that it is building.

I'm guessing it varies widely depending on local market conditions, but do you know of any typical hurdles (say 65% or 70%) that generally make the added risk (i.e. title and lien risk) worthwhile?

If the agent that I usually work with finds something that she thinks might be worthwhile for me (she knows the decorating and staging part, but has a realistic handle on repairs too) will call me while she's driving to the listing appointment.

Would it be worthwhile for me to still buy properties now even with a downturn being foretold, or would sitting on my cash now be better and waiting for lower prices even though rents would also potentially be lower?

If it is not going to help the bottom line, then I don't see it as being a worthwhile addition.

Is it worthwhile and how far do the rights actually go as in how much power does one have leasing?
